Lucida Sans Unicode & Hebrew Hyphen Maqaf

I cannot get Hebrew Hyphen Maqaf U+05BE to be displayed in
MS Windows font Lucida Sans Unicode. 

Sample text:  תל אביב־יפו

Is this a known issue? 


Background: 

 https://jkorpela.fi/dashes.html  specifies
“font-family: Code2000, Arial Unicode MS, Lucida Sans Unicode”. 
MS Windows users with Lucida Sans Unicode (comes with OS)
but without Code2000 and without Arial Unicode MS installed
will not get the maqaf.
You can see this best with menu “Edit > Select all”.
